Volatility Stop Indicator

[DerferMark]

I'm trying to find an EFS that looks/behaves similar to the indicator on these charts (examples):

Can anybody help? Thanks in advance!

Hi DerferMark,

Those are constant range bars in your examples, which are unavailable in eSig, so regardless of the indicator, eSig charts won't look like that. And I believe those particular volatility stops are computed using a moving average of the of the bars (times a optimizing factor and then +/- a local high/low) so since in your examples thoses bars are all equal range, the indicator has a lazy stairstep look that it wouldn't have with other bars.

Sorry I'm no coder so I don't have an EFS to post. You might try playing with the Parabolic SAR in eSig and see if that serves you.

Thanks checkraise. I am aware that those are constant range bars. I've been after eSignal to get those on their charts ASAP. Many charting packages have this option. We'll see if/when they get on board.

But even with regular price bars, a volatility stop line would be most beneficial to me. Hopefully someone else can help me out. Thanks! The Parabolic SAR just doesn't do the same job...
